Anti-Israel Nutjob Max Blumenthal: Netanyahu’s 'Extreme Right-Wing' Coalition Conducting 'Revenge Campaign' in Gaza

Apparently there were two alleged "neo-Nazi" counter-protesters at a Tel Aviv pro-Gaza demonstration on July 12th, and there are claims that "right-wingers" were shouting "death to Arabs."

Two, that's it. At Revolution News, "2 Israelis Wore Neo Nazi Shirts During Attack on Anti War Protest in Tel Aviv."

Cited there is this piece at 972 Magazine, "The night it became dangerous to demonstrate in Tel Aviv." And you gotta love this leaps of complicity here:
I have to say this clearly: it is not just these fascists, Eliassi and his people, or those carrying Liberman’s posters and the rest of the thugs. It comes from the top. It comes from a government which serially incites against Arabs and the Left. It comes from MK Yariv Levin sitting in the Channel 10 News studio, boldly lying about the Gaza siege policy, and refusing to allow Ran Cohen from Physicians for Human Rights to talk, calling him a liar, saying Channel 10 was derelict in its duty when it allows the government to be criticized on the air – criticism which was entirely hard, dry facts. It comes from policemen, who are quite adept at attacking Left-wing demonstrations, or ultra-Orthodox ones, and of course Arab ones – but somehow stand in silence in the face of fascists marching through the streets. And it comes from a prime minister who has been silent for weeks while masses flood the streets, attacking Arabs, swearing, humiliating, a whole population group feeling threatened and isolated, with nobody to turn to.

So yes, it will happen again. We will keep demonstrating, as we demonstrated this evening also in Haifa and Jaffa and earlier in Tira and Sakhnin and other places. But we have to know this will happen again, and prepare accordingly.
Also, according to JPost, in Haifa "Buses carrying Arab protesters who were coming to demonstrate against the Gaza operation were attacked."

Hmm, okay.

Here here comes insane anti-Israel extremist Max Blumenthal, alleging that "neo-Nazis" have "infiltrated" right to the top, and Israel's self-defense in Gaza is a "revenge campaign" orchestrated by "extreme right-wing elements" and "army reservists" who "came together as part of the orange cells that protested the withdrawal from the Gaza Strip in 2006."



Man, some really nasty, nutjob conspiratorial stuff. See, "Israeli Peace Demo Violently Disrupted, Dozens Injured as Counter-Protesters Yell 'Death to Arabs'."

Pretty typical for the left, though, whose contingents are currently protesting around the globe in the tens, if not hundreds, of thousands, demanding the extermination of Israel and death to the Jews.

Seriously, there is nothing comparable on the pro-Israel side, which explains why insane nutjobs like Max Blumenthal have even been widely repudiated by anti-Israel leftists.

Negotiating the Terms of Our Surrender? White Flags Appear Atop NYC's Brooklyn Bridge (VIDEO)

It's the signal message of the age of Obama and the cowardly political left.

Vancouver 'Sex Positive' Activist Drops Out of Local Election Amid Masturbation Video Scandal

You gotta give it up for Robert Stacy McCain and his #RadFem blogging. Some of the whacked out women he finds are just too hilarious. Check out this "sex positive" LGBT activist Trish Kelly of the "Vancouver Vision" party. Turns out the lady goes for the "solo sex" every night, lol. Prolly shouldn't have been making selfie videos however, heh.

Here, "Canadian Candidate Drops Out After Masturbation Video Surfaces":

I’m going to take a wild guess that the recommended “inclusive approach” to “gender-variant community members” might be somewhat controversial even in liberal Vancouver. And I’m going to take another wild guess that Ms. Kelly’s masturbation video — which highlighted her bisexual queer femme “sex-positive activism” — might have caused some voters to wonder, “What kind of long-term agenda is Vision Vancouver pursuing, if they’re willing to put this kinky weirdo on the Park Board, to eradicate ‘the gender limitations and constraints of today’?”
RTWT.

More at the Vancouver Sun, "Why Trish Kelly’s masturbation video was more trouble for Vision Vancouver than for her":
As everyone who cares now knows, Kelly, a performance artist, quit the Vision campaign Thursday after a risqué video she did in 2006 about masturbation began floating around. Kelly never made any secret about her views, and she has an extensive body of literary and video work touching on her self-described attitudes as a “sex-positive” and “queer” artist.

It appears that body of work and fears that it may [be] “dribbled out” over the coming months of the election by unnamed people, may now be what caused Vision to have “several conversations” about whether it might be better for her to throw in the towel now.

Both Kelly and Vision co-chair Maria Dobrinskaya acknowledge that the potential public attention presented “a growing distraction” to the campaign. But here’s the thing: a distraction to whose campaign? Kelly has never shied away from what she is or does, and in fact looked forward to using her office, should she be elected, to espouse some of those views.


Rula Jebreal 'TV Appearances Cancelled' After Slamming #MSNBC for 'Disgustingly Biased' Israel Coverage

Background at the Other McCain, "Is MSNBC Too Pro-Israel?"

Jebreal claims her "forthcoming TV appearances have been cancelled!"



I doubt it, actually. Her comments are tame compared to all the stuff for which MSNBC is constantly apologizing.

And besides, she gets hammered by Eli Lake, who says he's "baffled" by this woman's truly bizarre statements:

Reports: The Obamas in Escrow on $4.25 Million, 8,200-Square-Foot Home in Exclusive Rancho Mirage

You know, because economic inequality, or something.

At the Los Angeles Times, "Are the Obamas buying a home in Rancho Mirage?"



And at the San Bernardino Sun, "Did President Barack Obama buy a Rancho Mirage home?":
The home, a hilltop estate in Thunderbird Heights, has been on the market for about a year. Several real estate agents, speaking anonymously, said they heard secondhand that the president was looking to buy the 1993 remodeled home with seven bedrooms and eight bathrooms.

But those rumors have not yet been verified.

Just before the Fourth of July, the listing agent, Carl Blea of HOM Sotheby's, told The Desert Sun that he could not talk about the buyer's identity.

Then, last Tuesday, The Desert Sun asked The White House whether Obama bought the 3.29-acre property in Rancho Mirage. The White House would not confirm or deny the statement.
Rough life.

Amazing how the Obamas never make any pretense of adopting a lifestyle more in tune with those they claim to champion.

It's "The New Fashion," according to Robert Stacy McCain.

Israel, Hamas, and Moral Idiocy

From Peter Wehner, at Commentary:
To portray Hamas sympathetically and Israel as villainous is not simply irrational. It requires one to step through the looking glass, to hate the good and embrace the malevolent, and in doing so to enter a world characterized by at best moral confusion and at worst moral corruption.
Well, I'd just call it evil. But yeah, moral corruption works too.

PHOTOS, VIDEO: Train Carrying #MH17 Bodies Leaves Ukraine Crash Site to Return to Netherlands

London's Daily Mail reported last night on the "stench of death" as the bodies from the crash were loaded into a air-conditioned cattle cars. The stench was overwhelming as flies buzzed around the train cars. Astonishing callousness, "A chilling echo of Nazi death trains as MH17 victims begin the grimmest journey." (PHOTOS).

And thank heavens now the train is finally moving, heading back to the Netherlands, the home country of the majority of those who died.

At the Wall Street Journal, "Bodies From Malaysia Airlines Flight Begin Long Trip to Netherlands: Pro-Russian Rebels Agree to Hand Over Flight Data Recorders to Malaysian and Dutch Officials":


DONETSK, Ukraine—Negotiations over the rebel-held crash site of Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 began to bear fruit on Monday, as Malaysia's prime minister said rebels had agreed to hand over the aircraft's data recorders and to allow the transport of victims' bodies to the Netherlands.

Victims' remains were being transported by train from the pro-Russian territory of Torez, about 12 miles south of the crash site, to Kharkiv, Ukraine, a city with no fighting that is under government control. From there, they will be sent to the Netherlands, Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte said in The Hague on Monday. It wasn't clear when the remains would arrive, Mr. Rutte said, and the train trip to Kharkiv alone could take "at least 10 to 12 hours," he said.

Rebel leader Alexander Borodai told a delegation from Malaysia in the regional capital of Donetsk on Monday that he planned to hand Flight 17's black boxes over to representatives of the Malaysian and Dutch governments in Ukraine.

The head of the Malaysian delegation, Col. Mohd Sakri, said an agreement had been reached for the rapid removal of bodies of the plane's passengers and crew, which would be transported first to the Netherlands. "We want to bring bodies as soon as possible to family members to let them identify them, to make proper funeral arrangements according to their religion," he said. Forty-three Malaysians died aboard Flight 17.

Once in the Netherlands, Dutch labs will carry out the necessary procedures for the positive identification of the victims irrespective of nationality, said Jos van Roo, the leader of the Dutch forensics team in Ukraine.

As new fighting broke out across the region between Ukrainian forces and pro-Russia separatists, President Barack Obama strengthened his demand that Russian President Vladimir Putin compel the rebels to clear the way for investigators to access the crash site, which remains chaotic four days after the jet was downed.

The U.S. and Ukraine have said intelligence shows pro-Russia rebels in eastern Ukraine used a missile system provided by Russia to shoot down Flight 17. But on Monday, Russia's Defense Ministry offered an alternative conclusion, saying Russian radar had spotted a second aircraft near the Malaysian Airlines jet shortly before the crash and that satellite imagery showed Ukraine had moved missile systems into the area before the incident.

Lt. Gen. Igor Makushev said it was likely the second aircraft was a Ukrainian fighter jet, but he didn't say who the ministry believed had fired the missile that brought Flight 17 down.

The U.N. Security Council on Monday passed a unanimous resolution condemning the downing of Flight 17 and calling for an independent international investigation into the incident.

Growing anger over the attack and the handling of the crash site has led some European leaders to join Mr. Obama in threatening broad new measures against Moscow. European foreign ministers were due to discuss stiffer sanctions in Brussels on Tuesday.

"Now's the time for President Putin and Russia to pivot away from the strategy that they've been taking and get serious about trying to resolve hostilities within Ukraine,"


Mr. Obama said in comments at the White House. Mr. Obama called for "immediate and full access to the crash site" and warned Russia that it would face additional sanctions if Mr. Putin does not act. He also said the blocking of access to the crash site by pro-Russian separatists "begs the question: What exactly are they trying to hide?"

Walter James Casper 'Reaching Out' to Anti-Israel #ANSWER Communist 'CassandraRules'

Following up from my previous entry, "Los Angeles #Gaza Protesters Demand Extermination of Israel and Death to the Jews."

Just wanted to get on record how my racist, anti-Semitic hate-troll stalker is "reaching out" to the ANSWER communists I've been covering at the blog. Seriously. This dude is one messed up stalking troll:



She's not a good person, an America-bashing anti-Israel Jew-hater. Just Repsac's kind. Israel is no different from Nazi Germany. BDS much?



Bonus "Cassandra" tweeting an upside down American flag from the Anaheim anti-brutality protest:



And one of "Cassandra's" Anonymous pals, death-wishing Israeli Jews:



You can see why Repsac's "reaching out" to these demons. Sheesh.

Racist stalking hate-troll Walter James Casper III. One sick mofo, man.

Los Angeles #Gaza Protesters Demand Extermination of Israel and Death to the Jews

Commenting on the murderous anti-Israel protests in France last week, Caroline Glick writes:
Since the beginning of the year, anti-Jewish violence and intimidation in France has reached levels not seen since the Holocaust. And things have only gotten worse since Palestinian terrorists in Hebron kidnapped and murdered Naftali Fraenkel, Eyal Yifrah and Gil-Ad Shaer a month ago. Life for Jews in France is becoming increasingly untenable.

Anti-Jewish attacks run the gamut from shouting “Death to the Jews,” and “Finish Hitler’s Work,” to delivering bomb threats to Jewish kindergartens and businesses, to vandalizing Jewish businesses, institutions and other property, to physically assaulting Jews of all ages, as well as Jewish institutions.

On Sunday, violent mass assaults on Jewish targets commenced just as a two-hour-long fanatically pro-Palestinian march was dispersing. Nearly 200 Jewish worshipers were trapped inside of the Don Issac Avrabanel synagogue as assailants, riled up from the march, threw bricks at the synagogue and attacked its Jewish defenders with metal rods.

In the US, levels of violence against Jews by supporters of the Palestinians continue to rise. In San Francisco, pro-Palestinian protesters showed their solidarity with the Palestinian goal of genocide by, among other things, calling for Israel’s destruction while wearing white gloves with red paint on the fingers and palms...
And so it was in Los Angeles yesterday, where the Stalinist ANSWER cadres organized a march on the Israeli embassy, and here's "Cassandra" at the march, tweeting the Hamas slogan, "From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free!":


Cowardly communist thug Michael Prsyner tweeted from the embassy:


As you can see at the video, the protest was accompanied by a massive police presence. I was unable to attend yesterday, but my future ANSWER coverage will always be at events with transparent security, which is obviously necessary to prevent the ANSWER cowards from committing crimes in the name of censoring honest coverage of their genocidal and racist campaigns.




More at the Mad Jewess, "Why Is The ‘Anti-War’, #FreePalestine, Pro #Hamas Crowd Almost ALWAYS Violent & Nasty??"

Well, their murderous thugs, for one thing.

UPDATE: Here's the screencap of "Cassandra" tweeting the Hamas slogan from the protest, since she's now bleating "libel much?" like a pig.

 photo 6d12fdd6-cb7b-4714-b904-18f7f37c2f1e_zpsff2dbbc8.png

And here's the report at Now the End Begins, on the Gaza protests in London and Paris, "THOUSANDS OF MUSLIM PROTESTERS STORM EUROPE CALLING FOR THE DESTRUCTION OF ISRAEL":
Tens of thousands protested in London Saturday afternoon against Israel’s military operations in Gaza, denouncing Israel as a terrorist state and castigating British Prime Minister David Cameron for backing Israel’s right to self-defense against Hamas rocket fire.

Led by speakers on a podium, protesters holding placards and banners chanted pro-Palestinian and anti-Israel slogans. At one point, a woman on the podium shouted “from the river to the sea” — a call for the elimination of Israel — and protesters responded by yelling “Palestine will be free.”
The left's "Free Gaza" protests are nothing more than anti-Jew hate-fests delegitimizing Israel, literally calling for the Jews to be swept to the sea, to their deaths.

Your Legal Right to Takes Photos in Public --- of Just About Anything

From Glenn Reynolds, "On photography, cops need to get a clue":
It's legal in America to take pictures of public buildings — and pretty much everything and everyone else in public. That's something that law enforcement agencies routinely take advantage of in arguing that people have no "reasonable expectation of privacy" when they're out and about and being surveilled by the government.
That everyone else includes police officers, despite their protestations, and private citizens, like the ANSWER thugs who used criminal violence in an attempt to shut down "American Power."

Pat Benatar at Harrah's Resort Southern California

My wife and I are heading out to see Pat Benatar and Neil Giraldo, with Rick Springfield opening, at Harrah's Rincon.

See, at Harrah's Resort homepage, "PAT BENATAR & NEIL GIRALDO + RICK SPRINGFIELD."



And at Rick Springfield's site, "Rick Springfield Announces Summer Tour with Pat Benatar."

I'll have more anti-amnesty and anti-communist blogging late tonight or in the morning.

Thanks for reading!

Hey, Leftists: You're Gonna Need a Bigger Collectivist Army to Shut Down 'American Power'!

I had cameras in my face pretty much all day yesterday, all except those couple of times that leftists stole my phone.

At times I was surrounded by literally dozens of these smelly bastards, but it's gonna take far larger leftist brigades to keep "American Power" down:


And Darleen Click notes the key point that ANSWER's leftist thugs are not talking about, from the comments on yesterday's report:
Were there no cops there? Forcefully grabbing your phone and throwing it away is assault plus theft (and if the phone is over $400 it is a felony).

They want to stop gang injunctions? Nothing like handing over the public streets to criminals there.
No, there weren't any cops at the Stoddard Park rally, although there were loads of police at the march on Disneyland. I would have finished the march had I not been detoured by ANSWER's cowardly violence. These Stalinist goons simply will not tolerate conservative media reporting the truth on their "KKKOP killer" protests.

VIDEO: CBS Los Angeles Covers #Anaheim Police Brutality March, Ignores Anarcho-Communist Infiltration

As long as the local media refuses to report accurately on these protesters, I'll be out there providing on-the-ground reports of the disgusting "anarcho-communist "freakazoids" who are the central organizers of these events.

Here's yesterday's report, "Cowardly #ANSWER Communists Violently Harass 'American Power' at Anaheim Police Brutality Protest!"

And here's the report at CBS News Los Angeles. Reporter Art Barron ignored the radical, anarcho-communist protesters, many of whom wore shirts and held signs calling for death to the Anaheim Police Department. Even worse, the back bloc anarchists are shown at the video without even a 10-second description or explanation of the real and violent ideological program.





I'll have more Anaheim coverage throughout the day.

PHOTOS: National Protests Against Surge of Illegal Aliens — #BorderInvasion #StopAmnesty

I'd planned to blog mostly about the anti-amnesty protests taking place around the country yesterday, but instead ending up with a chronicle of leftist cowardice I hadn't expected. ICYMI, "Cowardly #ANSWER Communists Violently Harass 'American Power' at Anaheim Police Brutality Protest!" That was something, man. Jonn Lilyea links with more information about treasonous coward Michael Prysner, "‘American Power’ blog at ANSWER protest in Anaheim."

In all, I attended three protests. Organizers had planned two days of demonstrations, called the "National Days of Protest against Immigration Reform Amnesty & the Illegal Immigration Surge." Warner Todd Huston has the background at Breitbart, "PROTESTS HELD ACROSS US AGAINST OBAMA'S DISASTROUS IMMIGRATION POLICIES."

And from around the country. See Legal Insurrection, "Reports from the “Immigration Surge” Protests."

And at WND, "AMERICANS PROTEST AMNESTY IN 319 CITIES Rallies strong despite 'media blackout' from CNN, CBS, NBC, Fox News."

More at the San Bernardino Sun, "Protesters decry immigrant ‘amnesty’ at rally in San Bernardino." And the Riverside Press-Enterprise, "ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION: Protests in Murrieta, San Bernardino."

Also at CNN, "Protestors vent anger at 'alien invasion' of U.S. in 2-day nationwide protests."

In any case, I first stopped off at the overpass protest yesterday morning, at Ball Road and the 57 Fwy in Anaheim. There were a couple of dozen protesters. Some photos:




A second anti-amnesty protest was held in Irvine at the Yale Loop pedestrian overpass at the 405 Fwy:





I'll have more coverage throughout the day.

Cowardly #ANSWER Communists Violently Harass 'American Power' at Anaheim Police Brutality Protest!

ANSWER Los Angeles held a rally and protest march against police brutality in Anaheim today, "Anaheim: July 19 March to End Police Terror."

The event was an anniversary follow-up to their city hall protest last July, "STAY IN THE STREETS! FROM THE RACIST POLICE TO THE RACIST 'JUSTICE' SYSTEM - STOP THE WAR ON BLACK & BROWN YOUTH!"

I covered last year's protest and blogged it, "Communists March Against Police Brutality in Anaheim!," and "Communists Protest Police Brutality in Anaheim — #JusticeForTrayvon."

So I was in Anaheim this morning to cover the anti-amnesty protests on Ball Road at the 57 Fwy, and I swung over to Stoddard Park, near Disneyland, to take a few photos and Vines at ANSWER's protest. I was unable to take as many as I would have liked. "Cassandra" and "Jordyan, who were out to the Murrieta Border Station protest a couple of weeks ago, sicced their La Raza racists and communist thugs on me, and I was dealing with that all day. (ICYMI, I blogged socialist slutbags "Cassandra" and "Jordyan" here: "#Murrieta Protesters @CassandraRules and @BeautifulChaosJ Spew Lies and Hatred, Not 'Civility'."




I asked "Jordyan" why she said she wasn't a leftist when I spoke to her in Murrieta? I continued, "You're here with the ANSWER communists? That's about as far left as you can get." She raised her hand to my face, ran off, and refused to correct her lies. That's always --- always! --- the way it is with leftists. They'll lie about their true ideological program, because they know they'll be repudiated by regular, patriotic Americans.




Here's "Cassandra" with communist loser "Iraq combat veteran" Michael Pryser:



Prysner's a coward. He served in Iraq as a grounds surveillance technician, and word is he saw no combat, and since then has allegedly misrepresented his war record and trumped up the military heroism of other soldiers as his own.

He obviously doesn't like being called out on it, which is why he tried to shut down my participation at a public rally by seizing my iPhone and throwing it in the street. Pretty typical for an intolerant leftist scumbag. These idiots simply cannot stand to have their activism and ideology exposed to the real light of public opinion and opprobrium. This Ain't Hell just destroys lying loser Prysner here, "Michael Prysner: true communist hero."



I ran out into the street to retrieve my phone, which was still in good working condition, amazingly. At the Vine below is mental midget and dead-end ANSWER stooge Douglas Kauffman. Next to him is the mother of Manuel Diaz. I gather her son was killed by Anaheim PD and she was one of the event's sponsors. Actually, I was not "antagonizing" anyone. I would have loved to hear her memorial to her son, but the commie stooges were blocking and tripping me as I tried to move over to listen to the speakers. She came up to me twice during the day, asking me to leave. I told her it was a public park and I just wanted to take some pictures and I'd be gone. She didn't like that idea and called me a "disruptive force."



All of the anarcho-idiots who got in my face to video refused to show their faces. I couldn't take photos or Vines, as I was surrounded by thugs who covered my iPhone. Cowards. Stupid, intolerant, childish cowards:



Honestly, this dude needed to go toke a few more fat ones. Couldn't get him out of my face. He smoked cigarettes continuously, of course blowing the smoke in my face. I couldn't wait to get home to shower. These people are no better than the diseased aliens coming over the border. A dirty hippie if there ever was one, and obviously a cartoon caricature who's actually a stooge:



Notice all the black bloc anarchists at the photos:

>

I repeatedly told this stooge he wasn't intimidating at all. He was a coward who wouldn't show his face. They're all teeny-tiny little losers who refuse to stand up for what the believe and be counted. They all hide behind "V for Vendetta" masks and black-bloc balaclavas. It'd be funny, although they were extremely annoying, since it was impossible to get around to take more photos. And notice the Aztlán open-borders Brownshirts as well. ANSWER's been in longtime coordination with them, the racist freaks.



Folks might remember that Victoria Taft photographed the chunky bitch getting in my face in Murrieta. She stayed back today, and I was barely able to take this photo. Pretty funny, lol:



I stepped away for about a half-hour or so to tweet the photos I'd taken, and when I was getting ready to go, the protest march began, so I decided to take a couple of Vines:





It's actually pretty hard to tweet in the broad daylight, and I was trying to keep up with the march as I was taking Vines. After the march turned from 9th Street onto Katella (a couple of blocks north of Disneyland), I ran up ahead for a better position. "Cassandra" and "Jordyan" thought their thugs had driven me away, lol! I love how "Jordyan" scurries like a rat up onto the sidewalk, and covers her face like the embarrassed liar she is:



You'll notice, though, that I sent this Vine after I retrieved my phone from over that big brick wall seen at the Vine. I was about to send it when one of the Aztlán goons --- who came running from behind as I was working the keypad --- grabbed the phone out of my hand. I ran forward as he kept running and grabbed him by the shirt. Just then he chucked the phone over the brick wall into one of the backyards abutting Katella Avenue. I should have known. My bad. This was the second time these fascists grabbed my device and threw it. Only this time I had to scale the damned wall, which wasn't easy. I scratched my arm on my first attempt. After I found my phone I walked back to my Odyssey and took a photo of the scratches. All in day's work, I guess:



I've been reporting on ANSWER Los Angeles for years now and these losers are obviously not pleased by the coverage. Normally, though, ANSWER protests are monitored by huge police contingents. These thugs would never be able to block my participation, at times violently, if police had been on hand. So, chalk it up as a lesson. Only cover these losers at events where police will be on the ground. Frankly, I was being assaulted and prevented from exercising my free speech rights at a public protest. It's not something I'd do if the shoe was on the other foot. I'd never physically assault and harass a leftist wanting to cover an anti-immigration rally, for example, because I'm not ashamed of what I'm doing and I'm not ashamed of the message that all-American patriots convey at our events. The same cannot be said for the ANSWER communists. They're paranoid and conspiratorial. Remember, these are people who call each other "comrade" at their organizing meetings, like genuine Marxist cadres (which is good for a laugh, seriously).

Mostly, though, these are simply not good people. They have no respect for the rights of others, which belies all the "civility" bullshit they spew, and all the "social justice" crap they're always yammering about. The L.A. ANSWER goons are career protesters with dead-end futures, shaking down the mindless left-wing rubes for the donations that keep this racket going. Unfortunately, the mainstream press routinely gives these freaks positive, credible media, which has the sad result of providing legitimacy for a far-left movement that is so communist they backed Moscow when it crushed the Prague Spring democracy movement in 1968. That's who we're talking about here. Not "progressive" activists but Che-wannabe murderers who would slit your mother's throat if she were to say one word in opposition. F-k these losers. The don't intimidate me. And they can expect lots more coverage like this going forward.

Israel Pushes Deeper Into Gaza

At the Los Angeles Times, "Israeli ground forces push deeper into Gaza Strip."
